4/5
Paralyzed by Hope: The Maria Bamford Story (2026) Joseph Robinson Paralyzed by Hope is exactly what you'd want from this kind of story—intimate access, sharp humor, real poignancy, and rich archival footage.

3.5/5
Send Help (2026) Joseph Robinson With Rachel McAdams’ wickedly fun performance and Sam Raimi’s comedic horror touch, Send Help pulls off its Misery-meets-Swept Away premise beautifully.

5/5
Natchez (2025) Nicholas Bell Natchez is about a specific place obsessed with and defined by a specific era, and perhaps it's not surprising that a documentary about antebellum tourism provides the most potent and observant microcosm of America's arrested development...

4.5/5
Natchez (2025) Joseph Robinson Natchez is a hauntingly compelling look at the beauty and brutality of America’s past.

3/5
The Moment (2026) Joseph Robinson Charli XCX shines in this gritty, darkly humorous look at artistic integrity versus corporate pressure—though The Moment loses some momentum when it matters most.

3/5
The Moment (2026) Nicholas Bell The warping realities of celebrity are satirized in this waggish but often thoughtful mockumentary which finds Charli xcx processing the demands of commerce eclipsing creation, as if it's 'Portrait of the Artist as a Young Machine.'

1.5/5
Return to Silent Hill (2026) Nicholas Bell Visually arresting manifestations of trauma aren't enough to sustain Gahn's return to the video game adaptation...now reducing his gloomy netherworld to a somnolence only interrupted by disdain generated for its wooden performances.

3.5/5
Send Help (2026) Nicholas Bell Sam Raimi returns to adult flavored cinema with Send Help, featuring a stellar Rachel McAdams in a survivor noir asserting 'the female of the species is more deadly than the male.'

1/5
Moses the Black (2026) Nicholas Bell Despite the efforts of its intriguing ensemble, Moses the Black is only successful as a case study of failed artistic hubris, simultaneously showcasing the inherent limitations of cinema wielded as thinly veiled religious propaganda...

1.5/5
Dracula (2025) Nicholas Bell Besson's unnecessary take on Dracula is a jarring, oxymoronic exercise of glossy visuals often marred by subpar effects and clunky dialogue navigated by principal cast members who were seemingly all told to do whatever the hell they wanted...

2.5/5
Mercy (2026) Nicholas Bell Bekmambetov may have an innovative knack for slick pacing, as well as a forward thinking fascination with topical themes elevated by the incorporation of modern technology, but this hokey wrong-man thriller could have been much more astute...

1.5/5
Return to Silent Hill (2026) Joseph Robinson Inspired horror peeks through, but Return to Silent Hill is undone by stiff acting, overused effects, bad wigs, and a frustratingly foolish lead.

Mercy (2026) Joseph Robinson Even with a dreadful script, Mercy moves fast enough to hold your attention — once.

.5/5
Killer Whale (2026) Nicholas Bell If the purpose of cinema is to elicit some kind of emotional response, something like Killer Whale is more akin to a screen saver since it's completely inert, inept, and egregiously insipid in every way imaginable.

3.5/5
A Private Life (2025) Nicholas Bell An exceptional Jodie Foster is a prickly protagonist in Zlotowski's mysterious character study which charts an ambiguous, sometimes ineffable, journey for a private woman learning to be open in her environment.

4/5
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Nicholas Bell DaCosta's Bone Temple ends up being the piece de resistance of a foundation laid by Boyle's previous film---a brutal, cathartic, and subversive narrative playing out on a much more contained palette, suggesting the only way...

2.5/5
The Rip (2026) Nicholas Bell The Rip fails to establish the necessary characterization to hook us into this nebulous heist thriller which meanders far too long in a single location (without building tension) before we get to Carnahan's forte as an action director.
Posted Jan 16, 2026  Edit critic review
0.5/5
Killer Whale (2026) Joseph Robinson A ridiculous premise crying out for camp, Killer Whale is oddly humorless, void of thrills, and dragged down by bargain-bin visuals.
Posted Jan 16, 2026  Edit critic review
2.5/5
The Rip (2026) Joseph Robinson Apparently, The Rip has a remarkable true story buried inside it, but it drags to the good part and gets lost in muddled chaos along the way.

4/5
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) Joseph Robinson More violent, more affecting, and more memorable than its predecessor, The Bone Temple is elevated by Ralph Fiennes’ unforgettable turn.

3.5/5
A Private Life (2025) Joseph Robinson Jodie Foster shines in A Private Life, a deceptively gripping character study masquerading as a thriller.

2/5
Lover Girl (1997) Joseph Robinson Lover Girl may be scrappy, but its disturbing story never feels legitimate, undone by ugly visuals, clunky dialogue, and questionable acting.

1/5
Greenland 2: Migration (2026) Nicholas Bell This wholly unnecessary sequel mostly inspires a cynical death wish for the irksome family attempting to survive their next steps drudging through a declawed dystopia like an obstacle course in a vintage live action Disney flick.
Posted Jan 09, 2026  Edit critic review
2/5
Primate (2025) Nicholas Bell Primate is a bit primitive in its narrative and characterization departments and Roberts should have monkeyed around a bit more with the script to enhance the gore and practical effects with a bit of subversive commentary.

3/5
Dead Man's Wire (2025) Nicholas Bell Van Sant has satirized media culpability much more subversively in the past, which makes Dead Man's Wire feel like an entertaining but tonal hiccup...

3/5
We Bury the Dead (2024) Nicholas Bell Hilditch, who seems to have a yen for end-of-the-world narratives, presents a surprisingly eerie and intimate modern zombie film, though its best assets are a trio of traumatized humans...

1.5/5
Greenland 2: Migration (2026) Joseph Robinson A ludicrous, corny post-apocalyptic fairy tale road trip, Greenland 2: Migration struggles to justify its own existence.

2.5/5
Primate (2025) Joseph Robinson Primate piles on the brutality, but without tension or logic, its thin plot can’t hold the carnage together.

Dead Man's Wire (2025) Joseph Robinson More fun than fact, Dead Man’s Wire is a campy good time.

We Bury the Dead (2024) Joseph Robinson Creepy and conceptually compelling, We Bury the Dead comes alive when it leans into the zombie horror — and sags when it doesn’t.

1/5
Queens of the Dead (2025) Nicholas Bell Celebrating something like Queens of the Dead from director Tina Romero, a film harnessing all the sycophantic charms of Drag Race flavored frivolity more than it does the subversive zombie legacy of her iconic father's filmography...

1.5/5
Being Charlie (2015) Nicholas Bell While Being Charlie was assumedly paved with good intentions, and features a committed performance from Nick Robinson, it is a gratingly banal experience about a privileged, dysfunctional child who has nothing interesting to say...

3.5/5
The Plague (2025) Nicholas Bell An emotionally charged microcosm of children's foolish games...The Plague might indeed be nothing more than a teenage wasteland, but it embraces the simplest of sentiments we spend our lives chasing - Be Yourself. Be Real.

Marty Supreme (2025) Nicholas Bell The controlled chaos inherent to the Safdie signature arrives in will force with Marty Supreme, a sports drama about a dog-eared hustler who's as obnoxious and down-and-out as and of Safdie's previous hapless dreamers...

Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) Nicholas Bell The third cut of Silent Night, Deadly Night is certainly not the deepest, though its treatment of a slaying Santa suffering from seasonally induced schizophrenia resulting in violent vigilantism holds some interest...

Queens of the Dead (2025) Joseph Robinson A queer zombie movie should be subversive, but Queens of the Dead settles for tired tropes and mixed performances, spiraling downward as it goes.

The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) Joseph Robinson A flawed but daring swing, The Testament of Ann Lee probes the human need for meaning and the way trauma reshapes what we believe is real.

Anaconda (2025) Joseph Robinson Anaconda is every bit as stupid as you’d imagine — and thanks to its pro ensemble, it’s also a fun night at the theater, even if the final act sputters like a low-fuel warning.

Pillion (2025) Joseph Robinson A provocative exploration of love and self-discovery seen through the fantastical lens of a less glamorized queer subculture.

Being Charlie (2015) Joseph Robinson Being Charlie struggles to be more than an unremarkable addiction story, landing closer to an unfunny satirical after-school special than a gripping drama.

The Housemaid (2025) Joseph Robinson An overlong camp nightmare riddled with plot holes, The Housemaid could’ve been a tawdry masterpiece but instead plays like a 90s erotic thriller rewritten by Colleen Hoover.

Is This Thing On? (2025) Joseph Robinson Will Arnett anchors this quietly affecting, somewhat scattered exploration of a man simply trying to find his way.
